I. Setting the video preferences
This section explains how to setup AlchemyTV to capture from your analogue equipment, eg. DVD
player, VCR, camcorder, etc...
1. Connect your analogue video source to the Composite or S-VHS connector of the AlchemyTV. If
you have a VCR with a SCART (Euroconnector, Peritel) connector only, you can use a Scart-to-
Composite cable.
2. Making sure the TV window is open, open AlchemyTV > Preferences > Video
3. Click on the ‘Source’ tab and select the right type of connection, according to the type of cable
you are using to link your VCR to the AlchemyTV. Note that ‘Composite over S-Video’ is only
used if you have a Scart-to-S-VHS cable.
4. Select the right standard depending on your analogue equipment (PAL or NTSC).
